Star Wars: Episode IX (December 20)
Writer/director J.J. Abrams caps off the third trilogy of films that will reportedly end the "Skywalker Saga."

I'm thinking Dumbo (off-putting trailer) and Aladdin (No Robin Williams) will not do well. Maybe that will put an end to this live action Disney nonsense, but then again, I reckon Lion King will be huge.

Joker, Zombieland 2 and the Terminator movie are all serious crapshoots as well. There is so much genre stuff coming out these days, people are starting to pick and choose. It will just come down to whether they are any good.

I'm nervous about Star Wars - I liked Last Jedi and it's time to take a stand against fan expectation BS, but I'm not sure crowd-pleaser JJ is the guy to do it. We'll see.

Aquaman is off to a good start but I have a feeling Shazam will tank. Kids have no idea about that character and the old fashioned pulp stuff seldom does well at the box office.

Spiderman and Captain Marvel will do well, and Avengers will rule them all. Another big year for Marvel is in the offing.

There are a few dark horses like Battle Angel Alita that are floating around that I am curious about also.

The reaction was very strong for the Dumbo trailer in the theater I saw it in. I think it will hit.

How involved is Cameron in the new Terminator film? I imagine "not very" is the answer since he's so preoccupied with the "Avatar" sequels...

If I was a betting man I would assume that his primary focus is wrapping the performance motion capture portion of Avatar II - III before they move production to New Zealand for the live action portion of those two films. Second priority is working with Robert Rodriguez in wrapping up Alita-Battle Angel out Feb 14. Terminator is probably a Saturday morning review of the weeks events with increasing involvement in the months to come. That's my guess.
